I don't see it as easy at all. I can look at my neighbor and say, he should be working, he's just using the system. How do you separate him out of the group?

How would you do it?

____________________

Did your neighbor buy a house with zero down and a mortgage they couldn't afford? Are they able bodied workers? Did they spend their money on expensive vacations and not save any money. Gambling Habit? Drug Addict?

You might not know these answers, but if you want government help you better be preapred to give them.

Like I said, we can debate the margins, but I think there's a percentage on both sides where a decision is rather easy.
